A former military interrogator has appeared to at least partially corroborate the claims of a Guantánamo Bay prisoner who says he was beaten and threatened with rape by US forces after being seized in Afghanistan. Omar Khadr was fifteen years old when US troops imprisoned him in 2002. At a pretrial hearing on Thursday, the interrogator said he had told Khadr a fake story about a young Muslim being gang raped after being sent to prison. Khadr’s attorneys say the interrogator’s story marked an implicit threat.
